[0040] It is worth noting that an anti-skid plate 2 matching its shape is fixed to the bottom end of the base plate 1, and the thickness of the anti-skid plate 2 is 2-6 cm, preferably 3 cm in this article, so as to increase the friction between the entire device and the ground, thereby making the entire device more stable during operation.
[0041] Finally, it should be noted that the display screen body 4, float level gauge 6, motor 79 and other components involved in the utility model are all universal standard parts or components known to technical personnel in this field, and their structures and principles are all known to technical personnel in this field through technical manuals or through conventional experimental methods. In the idle space of this device, all the above-mentioned electrical components, which refer to power elements, electrical components, and compatible controllers and power supplies, are connected through wires. The specific connection means should refer to the working principle of the utility model. The electrical connection between each electrical component is completed in a sequential working order, and the detailed connection means are all well-known technologies in the field.
[0042] In the specific use of this embodiment, when the liquid level inside the sewage tank 3 changes, the float level meter 6 can detect the liquid level in the sewage tank 3, and the float level meter 6 transmits the liquid level signal to the external PLC at the same time, and the external PLC transmits the liquid level signal to the display body 4, so that the liquid level information inside the sewage tank 3 can be displayed in the form of an image;
[0043] When the left side surfaces of several filter plates 10 need to be scrubbed, the motor 79 is first started through the external PLC. The output shaft of the motor 79 rotates to drive the rotating shaft 710 coaxially connected thereto to rotate. The rotating shaft 710 rotates to drive the pulley 78 coaxially fixed thereto on the same side to rotate. The rotation of the pulley 78 drives another pulley 78 connected thereto through a belt 76 to rotate. The rotation of the other pulley 78 drives the rotating column 71 coaxially fixed thereto to rotate. The rotation of the rotating column 71 drives the screw 72 coaxially fixed thereto to rotate. The rotation of the screw 72 drives the connecting rod 73 threadedly connected thereto to move. The connecting rod 73 moves under the guidance of the guide block 74 and the guide groove on the inner wall of the sewage barrel 3. The movement of the connecting rod 73 drives the movement of several brush plates 75 fixed thereto. When the several brush plates 75 move from the inside of the sewage barrel 3 near the top to the inside of the sewage barrel 3 near the bottom, the output shaft of the motor 79 is reversed by controlling the external PLC. According to the above, the output shaft of the motor 79 is reversed so that the several brush plates 75 can move upward. When the several brush plates 75 move from the inside of the sewage barrel 3 near the bottom to the inside of the sewage barrel 3 near the top, the output shaft of the motor 79 is controlled by the external PLC to rotate forward. The above operation is repeated, so that the several brush plates 75 can make a linear reciprocating motion inside the sewage barrel 3. During the movement, the several brush plates 75 can further brush several filter plates 10.
